The story is generally well-received, with users finding it fun and engaging, particularly in the context of the game's missions.

Despite these challenges, the game offers a satisfying progression and is seen as a good option for short play sessions.
“The graphics, sound, and story are all fun and well-done.”
“The game consistently 'soft locks' during missions, the character logic and behavior is inconsistent which severely impacts gameplay, but after 36 hours of putting up with this, the final straw is the game has just overwritten my save game, reset all progress and I have to start over...”
